The ongoing waste crisis has highlighted the need to address the problem of waste collection and sorting. This paper presents an automated waste sorting system with Deep Learning using a stereoscopic camera and a robotic manipulator. The system can recognise and classify different types of waste and sort them into specific categories by using the robotic arm to improve the recycling process.
